Vintage Souvenir Scarves

I am in vacation mode, I have 14 days until we leave for our Caribbean vacation which led me to feature this post about Vintage Souvenir Scarves! Beginning in the 1930s, maps were screen-printed onto various types of textiles such as tablecloths, scarves and tea towels and sold in souvenir shops across the nation. Today, they can be used in various projects whether framed, made into pillows, cushions, etc!

Isn't how funny how something touristy takes on a very romantic, enchanting feel after many years? Love these ideas - especially the beach chair! I guess I'd better check out that vintage Germany map too. :)
